In Wander

Candlelight casts a certain sense of comfort
In the night I still fly up to your window, see inside
It doesn't seem to bother me that I'm lying on my own
And I've been floating round, and thinking aloud
Just to find out what I'm owed
Hands in the pockets of your jeans, at the riverside
It doesn't seem to bother me that you're alright
We didn't really talk it out

House, you're the only company I float around
But there are some days I never seem to get away from ground level
But just don't let me slip under
As I wonder what you're doing on this lonely night
House, you're awful quiet, is everything alright

Float round, don't touch the ground
(Weekend spent, as I spin in your living room)
Girl I've found you and I are inextricably bound
But always out of sync and you'd think I would be over it by now
(On top and brightly lit, Pull out all the stops this time kid)
Let me go, don't sail away
(Then Monday comes, as the grey of the day filters in)
And you'd stow under the decks to burst out halfway
Now the horizon's gone
(Get up, head off, hit the road)
And the rising sun won't come again
(Back to the attic, dramatic and cold)

I had a little dream about your face
You had a little bit of faith in me once
Straighten up your halo and crawl in love

Never in my life have I ever felt so complete
I thought about it all the time when you were lying next to me
But hope springs up in the most mysterious of places
Hands do things that minds can't

Don't woe for the world out of your control
The yellow flowers will grow
Until they cover all the streets with green and gold
It never made me shudder underwater girls
Swimming into my dreams
But when the daytime's gone and the nighttime's come
I'll be thinking about such things, as

Heavy lungs head along the highway
A hand reaches for a pillowcase
Been floating round and touching down
At the bottom of the ocean's deep
And do I remind you of something sweet still?

Don't you worry
The summer's gonna come and you're not gonna hold me
But don't get lonely
In that cold northern wind
My mind, and your eyes
Never shined so bright as the night that you showed me

There's a certain sense of comfort in the candlelight
And there's a perfect sense of slumber in the power lines
There's a murmur from the other side of satellites
And there's a flicker in the wind across the city lights
